  • Midnight Chase has emerges as a Cheltenham Gold Cup contender
    Midnight Chase has emerged as a Cheltenham Gold Cup contender after winning the ‘dress rehearsal’ for the famous event – the Argento Chase. This victory on Saturday was a significant moment for the 10-year-old and even though the two massive favourites for Gold Cup glory – Long Run and Kauto Star – were not involved, Midnight Chase has shown excellent potential. Perhaps...

  • Paul Nolan Noble Prince will improve for Ryanair Chase
    Trainer Paul Nolan has admitted he was disappointed with Noble Prince’s most recent display, but is convinced that the horse will be more than ready for the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham in March. The eight-year-old lost out to Blazing Tempo at the Normans Grove Chase on Sunday and instead of brush off the defeat, Nolan admitted it was a slight concern, but is hopeful...

    The big story has been the problems with the lameness of Punchestowns, currently 7/2 with Stan James. I don’t know if they were being over-cautious here and mentioning the problem thus causing many a worry for those that have already backed him but all appears to be well again after a canter on Saturday. As a result Long Run is now favourite at 11/4 with Stan James but...

    My three against the field are Rivaliste (13/2 with Stan James), who has been deliberately kept back since early December to protect his mark for last year’s winning stable, and will not be ridden so aggressively this time. China Rock (10/1 with Bet365) who has the solid pattern race form, which I like for this race. And Daves Dream (12/1 with Paddy Power) who I think...

  • Neptune Investment Novices Hurdle
    None of the market leaders strutted their stuff over the last week but an interesting contender here could be Fionnegas who chased home Dunguib on Sunday and would have run out an impressive 11 lengths’ winner without the season’s star novice in the race so he is a serious contender for whichever novice event they head for between this contest and the Albert...

    The retirement of Whiteoak, who to my mind was one of just four potential winners, has weakened this race further, as has the retirement of Candy Creek this week. I can pass on news that last season’s third Aura About You for the Paul Nolan yard is likely to make her seasonal debut in this race and I’ve heard good reports about her latest gallop where she reportedly...

    Looking at the weights, it would appear the bottom weight here will carry only around 10st 8lbs so the 11st rule is going to be under threat (the last 10 winners carried under 11st). So I would ignore that and concentrate on the official ratings stats that say you’ve had it if rated 150+ like in the last 27 years. I don’t read much into these things but David Pipe...
